    Summary

    There are rules to their flirtation: what kind of contact is safe, what is too much. Never be too sentimental, but always let him know; couch it in insults and admonitions, soften it with a touch. It’s not that she likes the rules, or sticks to them out of some moral fortitude—it’s that she already has too many voices knocking round her head, too much guilt, and she’s sure as pig shit not going to add to it. Especially not him. She’s had that nightmare before. Being too close. She won’t—
    The point is, there are rules. Good rules. Solid, keep everyone safe rules.

     

    She can't touch him. Not the way they both want. And oh does she want. Doesn't mean there isn't a bit of ill-advised wiggle room.

    Alternatively: Five times they most definitely don't have sex and one time they do (but it's actually six times they have sex)

    Summary

    Jaskier had known about dragons from the songs with their great, swirling eyes and tongues of fire, but he had not known. This was fire made flesh, precious metal given living form.

    So distracted was he by the magnificent creature, Jaskier barely noticed its rider dismount, so it was a shock when he stomped towards them, his snow-white hair half pulled back, half falling on his shoulders, eyes as gold as the sun.
